Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

My ipad keeps saying it cannot access my mail due to the connnection to the server failed?????

In the past two days my iPad keeps telling me that I cannot get mail.....the connection to the server failed.....
What is this, and can I fix it???

Can you get your email using a different device (besides the iPad)? If the issue spans across different devices, then the issue definitely lies with your email server as Diavonex mentions above.

My iCloud email on iPad keeps saying it won't connect to server.

My iCloud email on iPad keeps saying it won't connect to server. Tried removing and adding iCloud back on device already. Says last update was Thursday (3 days ago). I don't use this email much but got a few emails and attachments I need for work from that address. I logged in online from another computer and it worked. Any ideas how to fix this now? I do get email from other accounts and do have internet connection.

TS1398 MY IPAD KEEPS SAYING COULD NOT SCAN FOR NETWORKS

y does my ipad keep saying cannot scan for networks,ive used the wifi already but now i cant

Usually it's because you are not connecting to the internet via wifi.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet "

iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
Thank you.

My phone is the iPhone4 and my computer is a Windows Vista

I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.

HT4623 iPad keeps saying iOS 5.1.1 is "up to date" -- yet trying to download iOS6 -- any suggestions?

iPad keeps saying iOS 5.1.1 is "up to date" -- yet trying to download iOS6 -- any suggestions? Have tried "settings" on the iPad, which continues to say 5.1.1 is up-to-date, and have sync'd with iTunes, which also says the iOS 5.1.1 is up-to-date.

No, the ipad first gen. will be getting no more updates. Its no longer available in the apple store.
Unfortunately, if you wish to use apps or features that require iOS 6, you'll need at least the ipad 2

I am trying to copy and paste a 734mb film on to an 8GB usb but it keeps saying "It cannot copy as there isn't enough space". How is this possible? And how do I put the film on the usb?

Look at the USB stick in Disk Utility and check whether it may be partitioned or have other software on it taking up space.

I cannot retrieve my emails on my Mac Book Pro operating on 10.7.3 Icloud was already workingit keeps asking for password and when i put correct password in it keeps asking for it again and again. This has just started today

Though it's unlikely to be wrong if things were set up properly in the first place, as a check go to Mail Preferences>Accounts and check that the server setting for IMAP (incoming) is imap.mail.me.com (not just mail.me.com).
Your next step either way would be to go to System Preferences>iCloud and sign out, then sign back in again. (You can ignore warnings about data disappearing - your calendars etc. will disappear when you sign out but reappear when you sign back in).

IPad keeps saying invalid username or password when I try to open email

My iPad keeps saying invalid username or password when I try to open email

Are the email account's settings correct in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars ? And did you set up the account manually on the iPad or did you sync the account's details to the iPad via the Info tab when connected to your computer's iTunes ?

Paid for icloud, but ipad keep saying can't verify account. Does anyone know where to get help on how to verify?

I have an iphone 5 and ipad. I paid for icloud. I "think" iphone is okay but ipad keep saying can't verify account. I can't change that. I have been sent to the page on apple about setting up icloud but that doesn't help. There is no place for me to fix my account or change anything. Anyone know what to do? The apple support page doesn't answer my question. If just has instructions to set up, but I can't get anywhere on the ipad since it keeps telling me account not verified.

Welcome to the Apple community.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

Too many people are flooding Apple's servers, everyone is having this issue, try every so often, or wait until tomorrow.

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?
